Wegmans announces second location in the Pittsburgh area, construction expected to begin in 2028

The Pittsburgh area is set to get yet another Wegmans location in the next couple of years. On Thursday morning, the supermarket chain based in Rochester, New York, announced that Wegmans will serve as the new anchor tenant at the Galleria of Mt. Lebanon in the South Hills, as the property owner, Roadside Development, looks to "reimagine" the two-story shopping center. Back in April, Roadside took over the Galleria, a space originally built as a Kaufmann's department store."For decades, the Galleria has been part of the fabric of the South Hills community," said Jeff Edelstein, president of Roadside Development. "Bringing Wegmans to the former Kaufmann's site creates an opportunity to build on that history and give residents another reason to make the Galleria part of their everyday lives. We're focused on positioning the property for long-term success while honoring the role it has played in the community."Roadside Development and Wegmans said they expect renovations to begin in 2028,
